About this Cook
Even though I am in my 40s, I only started trying new recipes the past few years. When we moved out to the boonies, I couldn't get some of my favorite foods, so I had to learn to make them.
My favorite things to cook
I seem to have a knack for soups and stews. I also like to bake deserts.
My cooking triumphs
Made my first cheesecake from this site and it was delicious.
My cooking tragedies
Too many to list here. LOL

Chewy Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
These are delicious. The only changes I made were using mini chocolate chips as that is what I had on hand and I made smaller cookies as other reviewers had done. I baked them for about 10 minutes and they came out great. Definitely one I will be making again.

Mini Pumpkin Butterscotch Muffins
Just finished making these, they are delicious. I am definitely making these when we have family here for the holidays. I think the kids will love them. The only change I may make is to add some pecans next time. Muffins just aren't right without nuts to me.

Holiday Pumpkin Cake with Rum-Cream Cheese Glaze
I hate pumpkin pie, so I wanted to try something different with pumpkin that I might like. I made this for Thanksgiving and I am making another one right now, as it was requested by visiting relatives. Everyone (myself included) loved it. I made one change and that was I put a layer of brown sugar, cinnamon and butter in the middle. Also the glaze came out perfect, I have never made a glaze that set up so nicely. But then, I am impatient and don't usually wait until it is completely cool, and I sprinkled some cinnamon on top of the glaze just for effect and it looked and tasted great. Thanks for sharing this recipe, I will definitely be making this every year.
